The entire point of professional baseball since 1869 has been for club owners to make more money... The only thing that's changed is the amount of money and ways to acquire it. The idea that guys like Comiskey, Frazee, Navin would end TV blackouts, refuse to slap advertising on batting helmets, or chose not to tank if it was financially beneficial should they be owners now and not a century ago is pretty funny. Professional baseball has always and will always be about money.
